Garden Grove, Calif., April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Physical Rehabilitation Network (PRN), a leading US-based, owner-operator of over 270 physical therapy clinics, today announced the grand opening of its first outpatient physical therapy clinic in Garden Grove. The opening also represents the 39th clinic in PRN’s joint venture partnership with MemorialCare, a prominent nonprofit Southern California integrated health system.
Opening at 11869 Valley View St., the clinic will carry PRN’s long-trusted local brand, California Rehabilitation and Sports Therapy (Cal Rehab). Patients of all ages will find a full range of services under one roof, including pre- and post-operative rehab, non-surgical pain management, and sports medicine.
“Physical therapy works best when it’s connected to everything else in a patient’s care journey, and that’s exactly what this partnership with MemorialCare makes possible,” said Ajay Gupta, CEO, PRN. “Opening this clinic means more Southern California families have a place to go where the team actually knows them, talks to their other providers, and sticks with them through the whole recovery – not just the first visit.”
Michael Simpson, PT, DPT, COMT, serves as clinic director at the Garden Grove location, bringing a well-rounded clinical background shaped by both military service and diverse rehabilitation experience. Michael approaches patient care with discipline, resilience, and a strong commitment to helping individuals regain function and independence. His experience spans outpatient, inpatient, and aquatic therapy settings, allowing him to support a wide range of patient needs with a hands-on, individualized approach.
“At our Garden Grove clinic, we’re focused on delivering care that’s both purposeful and personal,” said Simpson. “My goal is to create an environment where patients feel supported, challenged, and confident in their progress, whether they’re recovering from injury or working to improve their overall mobility and strength.”
